Contents US-Japan Productivity Level Comparison Data and Framework
Elementary-level PPPs and Bilateral I-O Framework Industry-level PPPs for output and KLEMS inputs

US-Japan Productivity Level Comparison
Our studies from the 1980s: Jorgenson, Kuroda, and Nishimizu (1987) Jorgenson and Kuroda (1990) Kuroda and Nomura (1999) Nomura (2004) Jorgenson and Nomura (2007)
Improvements in this study from JN (2007) Use of new 2005 benchmark I/O PPPs (B1990 in JN(2007)) Use of improved Japan’s KLEMS Cover a longer time-series during 1955-2010 (1960-2004 in

Adjustment We carefully examined the differences in input-
output structures of both countries in the original METI’s BIOT (Nomura, Miyagawa, Shirane, Okamoto (2013)). And some are adjusted for better harmonization.
We removed deductible consumption taxes and separated non-deductible consumption tax from the indirect-taxes. (Nomura, Miyagawa, Okamoto (2014))
Expansion Duties and freights and insurance are distributed
among products. Imports from RoW are divided by 19 foreign
countries.
Elementary Level I/O PPPs-Various concepts of PPPs on products are reconciled in our price model based on the Adjusted 2005 US-Japan Bilateral IOT Producer’s Prices
Domestic Output Price : Pdi (inc./exc. indirect tax on products) Demand Price of Domestic Goods : Pd(H)i and Pd(I)i - where (H) and (I) represent Purchases by Household and Industry, respectively Demand Price of Composite Goods (inc. imports): Pc(H)i, Pc(I)i
Purchaser’s Prices Demand Price of Domestic Goods : Ppd(H)i and Ppd(I)i Demand Price of Composite Goods (inc. imports): Ppc(H)i ,
Ppc(I)i PPPs for output, intermediate inputs, and investment
For output: Pdi (exc. indirec tax on products) For intermediate inputs: Pc(I)i For investment: Ppc(I)i

PPPs for Output and KLEMS by Industry Output: Trans-log aggregate of output PPPs (Pdi) EMS: Trans-log aggregate of intermediate demand PPPs of
composite goods (Pc(I)i) K: Trans-log aggregate of PPPs for capital services by type of assets
33 US-JP Common Asset Classification: inc. inventories and land PPP for capital acquisition: Trans-log aggregate of Purchaser’s price PPPs
of composite goods PPP for capital service: Consideration of relatives of annualization factors
in the US and Japan (detailed tax systems are considered in each country) U.S.: 59 assets in 36 industries Japan: 103 assets in 47 industries
L: Trans-log aggregate of PPPs for labor inputs by type of labor 1728 US-JP Common Labor Classification: sex* 4 edu*6 age*36 ind
V: Measured by the double deflation method, using industry-level PPPs for gross output and intermediate inputs (EMS).
Use of New Japan’s KLEMS, 1955-2011 Main improvements in Japan’s KLEMS (KEO Database)
Labor: The unpublished cross-classified tables of Population Censuses (1990, 1995, 2000, and 2005) and Labor Force Surveys became available since 2013, due to the new Law of Statistics. Our benchmark estimates in number of workers and average hours per worker are replaced. See Nomura and Shirane (2013) for the detail and other improvements in our full revision of labor data.
Capital: The rates of depreciation are replaced by the detail estimates which are newly developed at ESRI, using data of the retired assets collected in the ESRI’s Survey on Capital Expenditures and Disposals in Japan from 2006 to 2012. See Nomura and Suga (2013).
SUT: Improved consistency with the detail production accounts in JSNA, ESRI, Cabinet Office of Japan. Separate treatment of consumption taxes in SUT.
Prices: The noses by the introduction of consumption taxes are removed in our compilation of prices of KLEMS, which provides a better comparison of PPPs for value added.
Periods: expanded backwardly to 1955 and forward to 2011
PPPs for GDP during 1960-2010- Expenditure-based (Eurostat-OECD) vs Production-based (Our estimate)
Source: The PPP for GDP-Production Based is defined as a measure of trans-log index of industry-level PPPs for value added. This is the first estimate based on the 2005 benchmark estimates of PPPs, which is calculated in May 2014 by Nomura, Miyagawa, Shirane, and Okamoto at the RIETI Project.

Conclusion A long-term story is not changed in TFP Gap
Period of Convergence: from 45.8 in 1955 to 95.1 in 1991 Period of Divergence: to 85.2 in 2010
Wholesale and retail is still the largest contributor to this gap, accounting for 41% of the lower TFP of Japan. We are going to investigate the difference in the type of wholesale and retail, to see the quality-gap in margin rates..
The superiority of TFP in Japan’s communication sector has vanished, since the middle of the 2000s
Japan’s medical sector seems to have a superior productivity. This may be true, but there is an implicit subsidies that are not recorded in the production accounts?
